What is the reasoning for the court to ask for prosecution witness list in November and defense witness list in March?

Is it so that defense can line up witnesses to refute each prosecution witness? That seems wrong to me. Why would it be done?
Because the trial favors the alleged who is presumed innocent and given the benefit while the preliminary favors the prosecution to prove probable cause to push the case to trial and receive the benefit to put it at a high level. And yes, it is so the defense can line up their experts and their witnesses based on the case the prosecution is taking to trial. Presumably also the prosecution is "ready" as they are the ones who start the case with the arrest and the preliminary while defense generally doesn't have the benefit of the time leading up to an arrest so need to start to craft their case after the arrest and after being hired.

:rolleyes:

By now he can't look more "dirty" than he really is, IMO.
Dirty” - IMO such an odd word to use by BM’s lawyer. And an interesting take about a consensual adult relationship between her client snd his presumed girlfriend. Is that how she would view the relationship if she actually acknowledged what it IMO truly is ?

Justice will come at trial.
We have a very long road ahead. Both sides will be filing motions and I foresee many many more pretrial hearings for the Judge to rule on those motions.
Have faith.

Television gives folks the impression that the justice system moves at cheetah speed. When in actuality, tortoise is a much better descriptor: slow and deliberate.

Eight months is nothing in the grand scheme of things. It's the blink of an eye in a criminal case.

For those worried about the prosecution, the DA is keeping her cards close to the vest while the defense throws everything out there and hopes something sticks/gets suppressed.

I don’t much care whether Barry and SD are boyfriend/girlfriend. I only care if something about their relationship led to Suzanne’s murder or coverup of her murder.

There’s nothing dirtier than killing another human.

Click it or ticket in Colorado.
BM didn't appear to have been a fan of seatbelts in Indiana....still owes Indiana a seatbelt infraction fine.
Better buckle up on your 14 mile daily round trips to PS. Barney Fife might be watching.

What straw will break the camel's back?

MOO

Justice for Suzanne!

Barney Fife, nothing. Deputy Brown's out there, waiting for Barry to screw up.

The judge who doesn't have the authority to make Barry move had the authority to release him on bond while facing a Murder 1 charge. His authority appears to be selective....and coincidentally favors one side over the other.
Wait! What? Welp. Did the Defense just say it would look dirty if Barry were living with SD?

What if SD lives with Barry?

How many slumber parties = dirty?

I wonder if the bonus spy traffic cam is still in place.

Will anybody have eyes on Barry?

Judge, we need more time to prepare our case. There's too much evidence against our client.

JMO
Barry being video'd parking overnight at SD's place shouldn't raise any eyebrows....and isn't dirty...because Barry said that they weren't intimate....and that should be good enough for the rest of us. Well,, alright, then.

I think a better term, at least from my point of view, would have been to conclude the prosecution did not come prepared. They acquiesced to defense about where Barry would live, about returning his drivers license and truck, about bringing evidence forward of he and his girlfriend trespassing on the very property where Suzanne was allegedly killed and about his gps monitoring device not tracking him 24/7.
So I could say defense whipped the prosecution or I could say prosecution just gave up the day. Still the same outcome.
But if I’m wrong, I’m wrong. We will see when trial starts. For all the mistakes BM made, he sure has friends and buddies there in Salida.

The defense is pure theater.

Dingle-Barry has not yet broken the terms of his bond. He's a PITA who will toe the line every second and bend the terms as far as he can bend them. Legally, neither the judge nor the DA can do anything to him and everybody at the CCSO has to be super careful to not "harass" or otherwise "persecute" poor precious Barry.

Pictures!

eta: of note, this is another great pack up and move job of BM's (his theory seems to be, throw all it in the back of the truck and let's see what happens)

Barry Morphew seen out with new girlfriend for the first time since he was released on $500k bond | Daily Mail Online

Although yesterday's hearing did not result in a requirement to move, it sure looks like BM is geared up to move. DM sure does get good photos. This batch was done by photographer Andy Johnstone. (BTW, I like the Cushman house better than the Morphew house.) And I wonder if this storage unit is THE storage unit previously discussed...

I spy a teal tote.

Just saying.
And a can of WD40. What’s that for? Guess the happy couple is joined at the hip now. Some of the facts stated in the Dm are incorrect, but whatever. I enjoyed the spirit of the article, and I hope they continue to provide coverage of Barry out and about in the wild.

NEW: Judge in Morphew case is releasing the entire case file. Court clerk says both sides are going through their motions before the release will happen. #BarryMorphew has been out on bond for three weeks.
@DenverGazette
So what does this mean? Are their parts of the case file we haven't heard about or is this additional evidence/back up to the PH discussions? In other words what makes up a "case file" before the trial has happened?
Thought she wasn't his girlfriend? I'm so shocked.:D

“I'm shocked, shocked, to find that gambling is going on in here;);)

Maybe the can of WD-40 will loosen him up a little around the mouth. We need some more Barry-isms. Loose lips sink ships.
